The Gaia-ESO Survey: Empirical estimates of stellar ages from lithium equivalent widths (EAGLES)
R. D. Jeffries, R. J. Jackson, Nicholas J. Wright +17
We present an empirical model of age-dependent photospheric lithium depletion, calibrated using a large, homogeneously-analysed sample of 6200 stars in 52 open clusters, with ages…
Mapping the distribution of OB stars and associations in Auriga
Alexis L. Quintana, Nicholas J. Wright, Robin D. Jeffries
OB associations are important probes of recent star formation and Galactic structure. In this study, we focus on the Auriga constellation, an important region of star formation due…
The wide-field, multiplexed, spectroscopic facility WEAVE: Survey design, overview, and simulated implementation
Shoko Jin, Scott C. Trager, Gavin B. Dalton +212
WEAVE, the new wide-field, massively multiplexed spectroscopic survey facility for the William Herschel Telescope, will see first light in late 2022. WEAVE comprises a new 2-degree…
Estimating the Convective Turnover Time
Wei-Chun Jao, Andrew A Couperus, Eliot H. Vrijmoet +2
The introduction of the Rossby number (R), which incorporates the convective turnover time (), in 1984 was a pioneering idea for understanding the correlation between stella…
The Structure and 3D Kinematics of Vela OB2
Joseph J. Armstrong, Nicholas J. Wright, R. D. Jeffries +2
The kinematics of stars in OB associations can provide insights into their formation, dynamical evolution, and eventual fate. The low-mass stellar content of OB associations are su…
Quantifying kinematic substructure in star-forming regions with statistical tests of spatial autocorrelation
Becky Arnold, Nicholas J. Wright, Richard J. Parker
We investigate whether spatial-kinematic substructure in young star-forming regions can be quantified using Moran's statistic. Its presence in young star clusters would provide…
